Grilling Baked Dilled Salmon on Rice Recipe
Grilled Salmon any style is just about perfect in my book and when I found this recipe in my Mother-in-Laws “Light & Natural” cookbook, well, I couldn't resist to put it to the test! The dill brings out some nice flavor that compliments the Salmon nicely and the salsa that covered the Salmon was simple delicious! I made enough extra to scramble in some eggs the next morning.
I did modify two things in this recipe with the addition of:
1/2 c red, yellow and orange bell peppers, seeded and diced
and I Substituted Wild rice for the brown rice.
